Have you gained the basic knowledge and skills within coffee roasting, but wish to further develop these skills? Then the SCA Coffee Roasting Intermediate Course will take you on a rich learning journey:

Learn how different roast profiles vary sensory expression for the same coffee even at the same roast degree.

You will train in small groups with no more than 6 students in Morten’s lab at the Kontra Coffee Roastery in Copenhagen. The roastery is fully functional and has over ten years experience of delivering coffee excellence to the Danish market.

The course provides you with the key information enabling you to receive your SCA Coffee Roasting Intermediate certification that consists of 4 short practical exams and a written exam (25 questions with a pass rate of 70% required).

SCA coffee roasting courses & consultancy

It all started with an EXCELLENT cup of coffee in 2002! I still vividly recall the moment and the emotions.

There is nothing more satisfying for me than using my full skill set of coffee knowledge and experience to either teach people about coffee from where they are, streamline quality, efficiency and the joy of the daily life in a roastery. Or to craft and to deliver the perfect research design to answer specific questions investigating and mapping out a deeper understanding of coffee quality in various different production steps from green beans to the final cup or consumer behavior. This is the basis for making CoffeeMind's three pillars of education, consultancy and research.

I have taught coffee roasting at The London School of Coffee since 2007, developed and conducted barista training as the manager of Kontra coffee’s training centre, taught research design and statistics for medical students on their final years of study for 5 years and recently used my experience and knowledge as a teacher and trainer to develop the roasting certification system for The Specialty Coffee Association of Europe, and then of course I also joined the Education Committee in SCAE.

I have regularly consulted with a variety of different sized roasteries around the world, including several times in South Korea, United Kingdom, South Africa, Nicaragua, Bolivia, Iceland, Sweden, Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Singapore, Kuwait and Denmark.
